The Canadian Geospatial Exposition and Career Fair in Calgary, taking place from November 6th to 8th, is set to unite the Canadian and international geospatial communities for an extraordinary national event. It marks the beginning of an annual series of geomatics technology events that promise to revolutionize the industry.
Keynote Presentation from the CCA event titled “2021 CCA Conference – Connecting the Dots for Multi-Dimensional Mapping” held May 26, 2021, where various members highlighted some contemporary discussions on LiDAR technology, web mapping, flood mapping, forestry, and Indigenous mapping in Canada.
Tim Webster provides an overview of the principles of lidar, describing the fundamental properties of the technology and details of various lidar platforms (airborne topographic, terrestrial, mobile, drone, bathymetric).
Keynote Presentation from the CCA event titled “2021 CCA Conference – Connecting the Dots for Multi-Dimensional Mapping” held May 25th, 2021. Here Anita Graser demonstrates open source technologies, many that integrate with QGIS, and emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary communication within teams to turn data into insight and understanding.
Keynote Presentation from the CCA event titled “2021 CCA Conference – Connecting the Dots for Multi-Dimensional Mapping” held May 25th, 2021. Here Steve Liang shares his vision for using Internet of Things (IoT = sensor network) data, including geospatial data, and intelligent automation (affordable, accurate enough predictions) to help workers focus on tasks requiring higher-level judgement to improve safety, productivity and decision making.
The video by Robert Gustas was one of the presentations from the CCA event titled “Mapping in Indigenous Contexts” held October 27, 2021, where various members highlighted some contemporary Indigenous cartography, GIS, and remote sensing projects in Canada.

On October 27th the CCA hosted an online event titled “Mapping in Indigenous Contexts” where we highlighted some contemporary Indigenous cartography, GIS, and remote sensing projects in Canada (Presentation recordings have been linked on this page).
We hope that this will be the first of many short presentation series where cartographers come together to discuss various mapping related topics.
